Description
The Straight Drying Tube Adapter with Ground Cone and Socket Joints, BORO 3.3 Glass, also known as a straight drying tube connector, laboratory guard tube adapter or ground glass drying tube adapter, is designed to connect compatible drying tubes to laboratory reaction vessels during moisture-sensitive chemical procedures. Manufactured from borosilicate 3.3 glass, the adapter features a straight glass body, one female ground glass socket and one male ground glass cone, both with a 19/22 joint size. The straight connection provides a practical arrangement for incorporating a drying or guard tube into laboratory apparatus. When used with a suitable desiccant-filled drying tube, it helps reduce the entry of atmospheric moisture into a reaction vessel.
The female 19/22 ground glass socket connects to a compatible male joint on the drying tube, while the male 19/22 cone fits into a corresponding female socket on a reaction flask or other laboratory apparatus. These standard taper connections allow convenient assembly with compatible jointed glassware. Both joint diameter and ground length must match the adjoining components. The BORO 3.3 glass construction offers resistance to many laboratory chemicals and low thermal expansion, making the adapter suitable for compatible organic chemistry and laboratory synthesis applications. This adapter supports moisture-sensitive reactions, organic synthesis experiments and laboratory drying tube arrangements, where reducing exposure to atmospheric water vapour is important.
A suitable drying tube generally contains a moisture-absorbing material, such as calcium chloride, selected according to the chemicals and experimental conditions. The drying tube and desiccant are separate components unless otherwise specified. Its transparent glass construction allows visual inspection for residue, contamination and damage before installation. The adapter is supplied individually, with one straight drying tube adapter per pack.
Safety Precautions: Inspect the glass and ground joints before use. Support the assembled apparatus with suitable laboratory clamps, avoid forcing incompatible joints together and select desiccants appropriate for the chemicals being handled. Moisture Protection Information: The adapter does not independently remove moisture. Effective protection depends on the connected drying tube, desiccant selection, joint fit and experimental conditions.
LabChoice Australia supplies BORO 3.3 drying tube adapters, ground glass connectors and laboratory glassware accessories for universities, research laboratories, chemistry teaching facilities and industrial laboratories across Australia.
